Mandatory hijab for all women
Dictated by a theocratic regime
Strict adherence to a dress code
Enforced by morality police
The girls of Revolution Street
Campaign against compulsion
Standing up for liberty
Fighting back against oppression
Courageous women raising their voice
Bravely fighting for freedom of choice
Fearless acts of disobedience
Risking arrest and prison sentence
The girls of Revolution Street
Campaign against compulsion
Standing up for liberty
Fighting back against oppression
